everyone expects him to win this debate, everyone, apparently except for governor chris christie. so he will have -- there is a danger of him coming in to this thing perhaps sounding overconfident. because even though he's in a better position, the country is still in a very tedious position, and so he can't come in as if everything's hunky dory. >> okay, and will, i'd like to ask you about this, that 47% saying and that secretly recorded video, that's really hurt mitt romney. and he's got to really respond to that. i heard politico reporting that president obama is going to mention the 47% thing every third question. >> yeah, look, i think there's two ways you can go if you're mitt romney on kind of talking about that 47%. you can choose the path i have, which when i've come on your program and others and that's actually try to break down the numbers of what was meant by the 47%. talking about who pays taxes, who receives government subsidies and shed more light on it because it was sloppy and didn't make sense. that's probably not the right path to do. don't pursue nuance in deb
